Everything about the S9000 says high quality

Philips Shaver S9000 Prestige with Qi-Charger - Opening the packaging of the newest premium — I mean prestige —- shaver from Philips will remove any doubts you might have about where this shaver fits in the world of electrics. Everything says high quality: the brushed aluminum metal finish, premium switching and multi-speed settings, informative LCD display, and overall feel in your hand are all perfect. The back of the shaver has a grippy, rubber-like, embossed surface. This model adds an elegant wireless charging plate that is molded so the shaver always rests with the ideal charging orientation. The carry case is a bit larger than necessary, but it should hold anything else in your shaving routine. You don’t get a cleaning station, which I never replenish properly, anyway. I prefer my own cleaning rituals.
Philips approach to trimmers is a separate twist off/on accessory that can be swapped with their newest cutting head assembly. This new cutter assembly is sleek and simple to open for cleaning, but it is plastic, not metal. You can feel the surge of power when you switch the motor on, but this may be the quietest electric shaver I’ve ever owned.
PERFORMANCE: Starting your shaving experience reveals the first compromise. There is NO way to charge other than the wireless plate for THIS model and there is NO quick charge. It is definitely slower than the typical charging brick. and it takes up more space. But the plate is so cool. I don’t see this as an issue; but, you might. A typical shave for me uses about 11% of the charge. This means I can take an 9 day vacation while leaving the charger home.
Dry shaving wasn’t difficult and was very close and comfortable. Even after a few days of beard growth these new cutters had NO difficulty staying comfortable or getting close. NO hair pulling. If you think you know Philips rotary shavers, you need to give this new design a try, And yet, I’m going to suggest adding a pre-shave lotion or shaving under a shower or with a shaving cream. It elevates the whole experience to the level of a facial Spa treatment. Your partner is going to thank you.
RECOMMENDATIONS: I’ve switched between foil and rotary shavers over the years. For me, the high-end shavers of either type have proven their value. I appreciate the added comfort and closeness. This Philips is easily one of the best. The Philips Prestige 9000 series adds the cool wireless charger with its pluses and minuses. There are probably other versions of this shaver without the Qi charger for a lower price, but I like this whole package as is.

The Closest Shave, Even for Sensitive Skin

Posted 2 months ago

Every once and a while an item comes along that makes you say “Wow!” The Philips Norelco S9000 Prestige Smart Click Wet/Dry Electric Shaver did that for me. Exceptional quality from the packaging to the product, this S9000 Prestige is a complete electric shaver.
• The firm carrying case fits snug for the S9000 Prestige shaver and charging pad. It keeps the electric shaver from any harm during travel. You can even turn off the electric shaver in travel lock mode so it won’t turn on while traveling in the case.
• The charging pad is a high tech Qi contoured platform. You get 60 mins of shaving on a 3 hr charge. I found I didn’t need to charge it quite as long for a full charge. By placing the S9000 Prestige in the special charging pad contoured for the shaver, a translucent light comes on and tells you if you are charging or already charged. This Qi flat platform can also be used with smart phones if they are compatible Qi.
• When I was done with the 3 heads, I simply pulled the unit directly up on the outside of the heads to remove them together. Then I inserted the straight trimmer to even my sideburns or any other spot that I thought needed trimming. It is really easy to swap out these two parts in and out.
• After using the S9000 Prestige, a light comes on to remind you to run the shaver under warm water. The water flows through and out of a hole in the bottom of the shaver. Now that you have cleaned the heads and need to let it dry before putting it back on the charging pad. It really doesn’t take long to dry.
There are many more luxury features that the Philips Norelco S9000 Prestige has to help you with your ultra close shave.
• The S9000 Prestige is contoured for a comfortable fit in your hand. Shaving in a circular motion without experiencing any hand fatigue is no problem with this shaver. I really enjoyed the speed and comfort of a fast shave.
• The S9000 Prestige has “Nano Particles” that shave hair with contoured closeness. It really does make a difference with the tech part of the S9000 Prestige shaver. It leaves your face soft and supple after each shave.
• Another excellent feature of the S9000 Prestige is the “Skin Comfort rings”. They have a special coating that moves around easily on your face especially in hard to reach areas. I felt no tug or pull of skin or hair when shaving the neck or jaw line areas. The S9000 Prestige didn’t leave behind any stubble when moving the shaver in a circular motion in the problem areas.
• The 3 heads do an amazing job shaving close and irritation free. This is by far the absolute closest shave I have ever had, wet/dry. I moved the heads in a circular motion and applied very little pressure. The result was quick and painless close shave without stretching the skin. I have sensitive skin so this was key for me.
• There are 3 comfort setting you can use: slow, medium and high. According to your preference you can use any one of the settings. Slow is considered friendlier to your face when shaving. Medium is supposed to be a more conventional setting. My personal choice is high because it provides the high powered closest shave.
• The wet/dry option is essential in today’s electric shaving market. I preferred to use the S9000 with wet/shaving foam. It helped me get a smoother and closer shave. It is nice not to worry about the electric shaver getting wet or razor burn.
• When the S9000 Prestige battery gets too low for a shave an orange light will come on with a beep. It simply means it needs to charge. There are digital numbers indicating the percentage how much power the shaver has left. I found this especially helpful if I didn’t charge the S9000 Prestige from my last shave. There is also a battery bar to shows how much charge you have left as well.
• There is even an alarm when the heads get blocked when shaving or are damaged. A red light will appear on the shaving screen.
I have to say this is the best shaver I have ever had. Usually I don’t shave much because my skin is sensitive, but the S9000 Prestige is built for sensitive skin and/or thick skin. So I have had no trouble with redness or pulling hairs. I normally don’t get too excited about shaving but the Philips Norelco S9000 Prestige Smart Click Wet/Dry Electric Shaver has changed all of that for me. I now can have an ultra smooth fast comfortable shave. We live in a high tech world and the Philips Norelco S9000 Prestige is a high tech shaver that leads the pack.

Fans of Rotary Head designs should like ...

Posted 2 months ago

YourMainDude

Tech Insider Network

The S9000 Prestige Electric Shaver with the Qi-Charge base is a good product for fans of rotary head designs over the years but it does have some shortcomings and the 'linear' crowd will probably not be enticed to make the switch.
The S9000 Prestige Electric Shaver with the Qi-Charging comes in an efficient package with a trimmer attachment and a wonderful premium carrying case. My sample arrived with about a 50% battery level and I was pleased to see how quickly it charged to 100% sitting on the Qi base. Unfortunately, the first noticeable downside to this design is the rapid discharge experienced after approximately 5 minutes of shave time - which I will cover in more detail later.
The shaver is attractive in it's design and color scheme. It is much lighter in-hand than I had anticipated, almost a bit too light, which detracts from the perception of a solid - quality design (when compared to my experience with Norelco shavers of the past). The grips are good and the overall ergonomics are sound, with a big display and easily used controls.
In operation, the shaver is amazingly quiet at all three speeds which was unexpected. I'm not quite sure the real benefit to having three rotational speeds after trying them all on different days didn't produce any appreciable qualities differences to the results. Nonetheless, even at this shaver's highest speed the 'sound quality' is pretty nice.
What I did find rather disappointing was the shavers battery performance and this probably has a lot to do with the fact that the internal battery is small in capacity. On average, using the middle speed setting, the battery capacity would routinely drop by 12 to 16 percent for a 5 minute shaving session. I personally find this amount of drain unacceptable with respect to traveling without the charging base. I routinely get 7+ days of solid usage from a competing 'linear' based competitor and find confidence in knowing that I can go a solid week without worrying about recharging while on the road. I don't have that same confidence with this shaver. It seems to me that at this price-point, designing in a larger capacity battery would enhance this facet of usage whilst at the same time increasing the weight of the unit - thereby enhancing the perception of quality. YMMV
With respect to the quality of the shave, I found this shaver to give a nice and comfortable close shave over the course of a week or so. My only gripe would be that I personally achieve a better quality of shave in the neck region from a linear design. I was hoping that after many years of not owning a Norelco rotary design that by now they would have come closer to perfecting overall performance no matter what region was being tackled - but for me - this shaver takes much effort to achieve an effective neck shave.
Overall, I think this design is a big win for established customers of Norelco rotary designs and will appeal to many of them at that point where they are upgrading. It looks stylish, is ergonomically designed without any big variance from previous Norelco designs in terms of structure and from what I can tell - is notably quieter than older designs. But it stills feels a bit light and cheap in the hand for my tastes.

Very good shaver with a very high price

Posted 2 months ago

I know what you are thinking.
Can ANY electric shaver really be worth as much as a low end 4K 50-inch smart TV?
Not as far as I am concerned.
But if price is no object and you want a really nice top-of-the-line electric shaver, this latest offering from Norelco is about as as good as it gets.
To start with, it's a beautiful piece of industrial design. One might be tempted to call it a work of art, with its shiny stainless steel cladding , swirling ridge design on the rubberized body and top and ergonomic handle that makes it a joy to hold. There's also a shiny new matching wireless charging pad to makes it easy to keep the shaver fully charged.
Even better, there is plenty of good function to go with the attractive design, from the super comfortable floating articulated head to the LED in screen with large easy to read display that shows battery life, charging state and reminders.
And to top it all off, this model comes with a sturdy, albeit very bulky, hard travel case that is designed to hold both the shaver and the wireless charger.
I have been using Norelco shavers for most of my life, usually gravitating toward the decidely more less expensive models in the lineup. This is my first venture into the Porshe end of the scale and I come away with some mixed feelings.
Yes, the S9000 Prestige delivers a a great shave. The trademark floating, rotating heads easily bend around the contours of your face and seem to cut closer and faster than less expensive models. The motor also seems to have a bit more torque -- a plus for those with heavy or tough stubble -- but is no louder than any other shaver in the Norelco lineup. In other words, it's pretty quiet.
You can use it wet or dry and it works well either way.
Battery life seems pretty darn good, using less than 5 percent of total charge per shave. Recharging from near empty takes about three hours, pretty slow by cell phone standards but you only shave once a day so charging speed is not essential. The big circular light on the charging pad turns on when you place the shaver on the charger and goes out when it's done. The LCD display on the shaver also shows charging state and provides other reminders regarding cleaning and changing blades.
The new wireless recharging pad uses the same Qi technology as the wireless chargers that work with many cell phones. It's just a LOT bigger, a hefty 3.5 inches by 7 inches. That's not great if real estate on your bathroom vanity is in short supply. You might want to keep the charging pad somewhere else and just leave the shaver there when it needs a charge.
That's all the good stuff. Here's the not so good.
Unlike most much cheaper Norelco models, the sideburn trimmer is NOT built in. It's a separate head. You have to pull off the regular shaving heard and swap it with the trimmer. That's not very convenient and the trim head is small enough that would be easy to lose.
Because its blades are so precise, the Norelco S9000 needs constant cleaning. As in every day, at least according to the instructions. That means running it under hot water while running after each shave, then pulling the head off the let them dry. So your shaver is in pieces most of the time, not a good look for the bathroom vanity. A more thorough cleaning, in which the blades are removed from circular shaving heads is recommended once a month. And new blades and heads ($60 for Norelco brand replacements - ouch!) are suggested once a year.
But perhaps the biggest downside is the price. For all its good looks and fancy gadgetry, this Norelco shaver is not all that different from super cheap models from Norelco that cost one-tenth as much At least in terms of basic functionality. They all use the same sized circular cutting heads and all come mounted in flexible headpieces that bend to the contour of your face. Still, there are differences in the actual shaving heads and blades and the motor.
In this case, Norelco says this model has "Nanotech precision blades" for "ultimate closeness," a "beard adapt sensor" that adapts "15x times per second" to deal with heavy or light beards and "SkinComfort" rings with "special metallic coating" for better comfort.
To be honest, I really didn't notice that much difference from old cheap Norelco I have been using for a year or so, except the new model cut faster and did seem to result in a closer shave.
In the end, the S9000 Prestige is an excellent, well-designed electric shaver that does its job very well. Only you can decide if all those extras it provides are worth the price.

Wow, an electric razor that finally works!!!!

Posted 3 weeks ago

tommyorlando

Over the years i have had many electric shavers, usually the expensive ones ($2-300.00), only to use for a few weeks then switch back to the precision of a blade. I'll use my blade for a couple years then get a wild hair and buy a fancy electric shaver. Then switch back and so on and so on...
Well recently i saw this electric razor at BestBuy, with the wireless charging pad, it caught my attention in that it was wet / dry and could charge wirelessly, no dumb cord needed, i have enough in my bathroom sink area as it is (thanks Alexa).
I have been using it about 3 weeks now and can honestly say, without a doubt, bar NONE, this is the best electric shaver i have ever used, it gives me a extremely close shave, dry with no lotion or anything, only time i use a razor is just to get my sideburns clean, that little area which is hard to get with any electric razor. Im extremely impressed with this particular electric shaver. I would easily toss this in my bag and take on a trip with me, i'm pretty sure you can unplug the wireless charging pad and use that power cable as a direct cable into the electric razor.
Cleaning it is a breeze, it just pops open, rinse it with water, let it dry and your back in business. If you can afford this, and your picky about a VERY close shave i would highly recommend this electric razor. I'm not small guy either, i have a pretty rough stubble on my face and this thing just performs 5 stars.
Ok, now i'm late to work writing a dumb review! Hope this helps!

Unbelievable performance, top of the line shaver

Posted 2 months ago

I have never been able to use an electric shaver until now. Nothing is ever powerful enough or shaves close enough for my liking due to my course and plentiful whiskers. That is, until now. I know this razor is expensive, but in my opinion it is worth every penny.
Where do I begin? First of all, opening the box and the convenient travel case that it comes in reveals a visually stunning piece of equipment. It is sleek and beautiful. It comes with a Qi charging pad and a trimmer attachment. I had to clear a spot on my bathroom counter for the charging pad which is a little large in my opinion. I put the razor on the pad to revisit at a later time.
When I came back to my charged up razor, I turned it on and started to shave. This thing is powerful! Just holding it in your hands feels good. Even though the razor kind of jumps when you turn it on, it is so quiet. I decided to just splash some water on my face and not use any soap or shaving cream to see how it worked. Unbelievable! This thing shaves pretty much just as close as a straight razor. It glides so effortlessly over my chin contouring to every curve, nook, and cranny! I never in my life would have thought that an electric razor could shave so close. Halfway through my shave, I was greeted with an alert to let me know that there was a clog in the heads. How awesome is that! I cleared the heads and continued what turned out to be a wonderful shave; definitely the best electric shave I have ever had.
Now that I have the S9000, I cannot imagine going back to straight razor shaves. I know this thing is a little expensive, but quality and performance costs money folks.

5 Stars, not enough.... Best Electric Shaver Owned

Posted 2 months ago

Flat out, this is by FAR the best Electric shaver I have ever owned in 35 years of my shaving life.
Three different speeds, and the HIGHEST is simply way more then I need... so I only use the medium and low. The add-on trimmer, so you deliberately need to add it, and don't get the occasion slide up slip up.
The blades are SHARP, and cut clean... even on the very first usage out of the box. Flexible heads gets all the curves on the face. Relatively quiet as well, not sure if anyone can even hear it out side of me using it.
Charging, this is maybe the only thing that gives it a small ding...and small, I mean really small simply because bathrooms are not in the 21st century yet. This uses non-contact charging system, meaning there is no metal-on-metal connector between the razor and the charging base. That fact, is GREAT. one less thing to worry about getting wet. The base, connects to a USB style plug in the wall, which we all have and we all carry, especially when we travel.
Here is the ding, the charing base is a little big, and the razor has to lay flat on it... so it does take up a bit more space on your countertop. I can see in the future, where we have bathroom counter tops, with this tech built into them (both my toothbrush and my razor uses this tech to charge)... but till then you will need to make room.
Now lastely... this is a spectactular looking razor. Bright and crips metal, really well done.. and is a piece that looks greate on the counter.
Yes it is pricey. but it is somethign most people need to use daily, if not twie daily. and it touches the part of you, that most people see first... your face.....

I've never had a Norelco razor or any rotary razor. I've seen them advertised for over 40 years. I decided to finally try one out and I've been incredibly impressed with how the rotary shaver performs.
This shaver has quality components as it should for this price point. The feel in your hand is excellent and the ergonomics of the device are excellent. The control switches are perfectly positioned and the feel of operating the switches contribute to the perception that this is a quality product.
The feel of rotating shaver blades is excellent and probably better than a traditional foil shaver so I can now understand why rotary shavers are so popular. It almost feels like a ball is rolling over your face as opposed to a foil shaver which can feel like it's cutting through the hair on your face.
The only drawbacks I have with this shaver is having to remove the rotary heads to put in the trimmer and cleaning the heads is not as simple as it looks in the product images. I understand how it might not be feasible to locate a trimmer on a rotary shaver that is permanently positioned. Despite that, Norelco has built a quality shaver with their S9000.
I also really like the carrying case as I do a lot of traveling. The battery seems to stay charged for quite a long time so that is definitely a plus.
If you're looking for a premium rotary shaver, this is an excellent choice for this price point.
